Default Chronicalling the pregnancy

I feel the need first to apoligize for my spelling its way to early and I can't spell big words without the caffine.
I feel the need to chronical (again sorry) this pregnancy any ideas? Right now all I can think of is writing in a spiral notebook and possibly moving things into the baby book when I get one.

I agree-- takes LOTS of pictures!! I regretted not taking pictures during my first, so I insisted that I was going to with this one. The weeks came, they went, and I have only a few pictures! Grr! My biggest regret.

You could also try blogging your experience. You could try www.blogspot.com. If you are anything like me, typing is faster and easier than writing! And more convenient. Otherwise, the notebook is a great way to chronical your pregnancy!

Good luck!

I think a blog is a great way to chronicle your pregnancy! I started out with a journal, and then put them into my blog. Not as much as I had planned to do, but at least I have more documented this time around than with my first two!

Congratulations on your pregnancy!! You are starting over, more so than I am!! My youngest is 8. I hope you have an uneventful pregnancy, and that everything goes smoothly for you!

I created a word document and wrote a little every week about how I felt, what the doctor's said, etc. When my twins were born it was quite eventful as well, so I also wrote about the birth and their stay in the NICU. I think it will be a great thing to share with them when they are big enough to understand. I didn't get a lot of pictures of my belly, which I regret. But I got TONS of pictures of the kids while they were in the hospital.
